230sl come with headrests ?
« on: September 13, 2012, 07:10:12 »
Hi all,

The seats that came with my 1964 230sl have headrests. I'm just trying to determine if these would be original or not ? Does anyone know if 230sl came with headrests ? Most of the pics I've seen of a 230sl don't have headrests ....

Regaeds, Joe  :)

I don't think any 230 came out the factory with headrests, only the last 280's had them as an option.
Many have been added as a safety feature by owners.
